Quotes & Awards

“In journal-like passages that include quotes from original sources, Sewall gracefully and unerringly reconstructs the lives of the pilgrims. She takes readers from the journey out of England, financed by English merchants (‘hoping to prosper in time by our successful settlement’) and to the building of many new townships around the original.”

Publishers Weekly

“Sewall’s book not only conveys the spirit and conviction of the Pilgrim experience, but also provides a bounty of historical information and domestic detail about the settlement at Plimoth and the people who survived those arduous first seasons in America…By adhering to traditional language and vocabulary…Sewall has captured the dignity of the Pilgrim voice, and lends a quiet, steady rhythm and intensity to the text…Sewall’s book is educational in the best sense: it is eloquent, evocative, factual, and lovely to behold.”
